быть (To Be)
Russian people use the verb “to be” in future and past tenses, but present tense only for specific situations. They use a dash instead of the present tense form of the verb “to be” to make sentences, e.g. Моя мать - врач (My mother is a doctor). However, past and future tenses have to be conjugated as it is shown in the following table.
